German MotoGP - Free Practice (1) Results

MotoGP title leader Andrea Dovizioso fastest for Ducati in FP1 for the German MotoGP.

The Sachsenring has been resurfaced for 2017. Since there has been no prior testing on the new asphalt, Michelin has four types of front and rear slick tyres available this weekend, while FP1 and FP2 have been extended by ten minutes.

There were falls for Andrea Iannone, Scott Redding, Alvaro Bautista and Tito Rabat, plus early mechanical issues for Valentino Rossi.

Mika Kallio is making a wild-card appearance for KTM...
